As global dementia rates are projected to increase by 2050 due to a growing aging population, what can we learn from Finland’s approach to preventing cognitive impairment? In partnership with @globeandmail and reported by students at the @GR_Program. bit.ly/3FPD2XG

This #WorldFisheriesDay, check out the @GR_Program's project about fishmeal, which was produced in partnership with @NBCNews. The project is especially relevant this year since @FAO named 2022 the year of #ArtisanalFisheriesAquaculture. 🐟 Find it here: bit.ly/3EMwTe3

Thank you to @ltamblynwatts @CanAgeSeniors for sharing your breadth and depth of knowledge about aging during our interview for our @GR_Program project. Your passion for advocacy was palpable and brought us great insight!

So lovely to have @amtremonti join our @GR_Program class last week. Her insights and advice were invaluable! Especially as fellows prepare for their upcoming reporting trip.
Graduate students at #UBC #JWAM had the honour and pleasure of welcoming @amtremonti in their classrooms last week. As an Asper Visiting Professor, Anna will inspire and motivate future #journalists with her anecdotal wisdom.

So much to learn from Dr. Pat Armstrong, distinguished professor @YorkUniversity. Your engaging interview along with your previous work gave our @GR_Program project on #aging the expert Canadian lens that we needed.
Thank you for this valuable work!

Globally, we are at a demographic tipping point. The @WHO projects by 2050, over two billion people will be 60+ years old. Reported by the fellows at our @GR_Program and @picardonhealth, we bring you a special report on #growingolder. bit.ly/3Spc1gx

After spending a year in the @GR_Program, it's so rewarding to see our year-long multimedia project, #GrowingOlder, come together. The feature follows four seniors in Canada, Finland, South Korea and Sweden as they grapple with aging in their respective countries. Enjoy, folks!

In Barbuda, Hurricane Irma created an opportunity for the gov't to amend the law to open up the island for development. Crises like natural disasters can lead to the erosion of land rights. Read our latest story in partnership w/ the @GR_Program & @TheTyee bit.ly/3AfgZXR

Amidst a pandemic, construction of the CGL pipeline continued through unceded territory. Experts say this fits a historic pattern of power plays. The latest from the GRC, @GR_Program and @TheTyee bit.ly/3A5Rzf9

Many “disaster land grabs” start well before the point of crisis. The disaster simply allows for powerful actors to capitalize on instability, chaos, recovery, & diverted attention. Find our latest story in partnership with @TheTyee and the @GR_Program. bit.ly/3AfgZXR

The pandemic made resistance harder for those opposed to the CGL pipeline. It fits a global pattern of crisis-connected land grabs. A project in partnership with the @GR_Program and @TheTyee bit.ly/3AfgZXR

Crises can act as an accelerant for unpopular development projects. Read how private companies and governments used COVID-19, the Ebola outbreak, floods, hurricanes and other disasters to push through projects. An investigation with @TheTyee & @GR_Program. bit.ly/3AfgZXR
